KNX Line Coupler Secure

Elevate your Building Automation Security

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, cybersecurity in home and building automation has emerged as a critical concern. As security requirements in building projects continue to escalate, it is essential to protect against unauthorized configuration and manipulation, ensure the security of transmitted data, maintain fail-safe operation of building functions, and achieve sustainable control over the entire building installation.

Protecting devices in KNX installations poses an increasing challenge for planners, installers, and manufacturers. In response to current and future cybersecurity challenges in building automation, the KNX Association has developed the KNX Secure Standard. ABB is committed to expanding its portfolio of KNX Secure devices to meet the demands of secure building automation. Our latest achievement in this endeavor is the KNX Line Coupler Secure.
